There are times when you think all's well with the world, when you can't think of any grudges you have against anybody, when, in short, you are feeling on top of the world; and suddenly something strikes you and all your happiness evaporates: in my case, that something is grammatical and spelling errors anywhere and everywhere including, horror of horrors, in print.
Some sad examples:
The present's...packaging?
Thankfully, they don't teach English.
Proof-readers! Where are you all?
That spelling is a criminal offence.
Why don't I think that news is very good?
P.S. : It is true that these signs depressed me at first. But as soon as I had decided to put this up here, I kind of started looking out for them. :P It's fun.
